He tilted his head and Qin Shi hummed in discomfort.
Luo Xuexian trembled between her lips and teeth, and she didn't reply for a while. She just stuffed the wrinkled mercenary diary to Qin Shi.
After taking the diary, Qin Shi stretched it out and swept his eyes over the densely packed tiny handwriting. However, the more you looked back, the deeper the frown, the record of the last task was very clear, that is, at any cost, as long as Luo Xuexian died.
When Qin Shi was looking at the word "death", he bulged his mouth and didn't understand. How could a little woman cause such trouble? Asked: "Miss Xuexian, what kind of deep hatred do you have with the Wei family? He even paid a lot of money to find someone to deal with you?"
Luo Xuexian hesitated and her eyes flashed and coldly said: "Don't be satisfied with Mr. Qin, my Luo family and the Wei family are two major families in Hongyun City. The two families take the city center as the boundary and each controls things!"
"Hiss...two big families?"
Taking a breath, Qin Shi was a little surprised. Two big families in Hongyun City?
This was something Qin Shi never expected. Although he had known that the Luo family was powerful, he could surpass half of Hongyun City? That was not a joke.
Hongyun City is not the third-tier city like the ancient city that can be looked down upon. In the northern region of the empire, it is one of the five first-tier cities, and it is a reason to be weak?
"It seems that I still underestimate the Luo family!" A cry in my heart, Qin Shi raised his hand and glanced at his hair covering his eyes, and asked, "Then why should this Wei family attack you?"
Luo Xuexian's eyes turned and freezes the date of the mercenary diary, saying, "I think it should be related to the purgatory competition once in the twenty years."
"Purgatory competition?"
Qin Shi was a little surprised when he licked his lower lips.
"Well, in Hongyun City, in the center, there is a mysterious iron tower worth tens of millions of years. This iron tower is called the Purgatory Tower." Luo Xuexian pursed her red lips slightly and said, "The Luo family and the Wei family will climb out of three juniors to compete every twenty years, and the winning side will gain control of the Purgatory Tower for twenty years."
Speaking of this, Luo Xuexian paused, pinched her fist to death on her trouser legs, and cursed angrily: "There are only four of my juniors who can participate in the competition. As a result, my elder brother went on the battle not long ago and was chased by a mysterious person and was seriously injured."
"After a month, it will be a purgatory competition. Only those who can participate in the competition today are my second brother, third brother, and me. As long as the Luo family gets rid of me, their Wei family will be able to win without a fight in this purgatory competition."
"So that's what it is..."
"It seems that my elder brother's injury was probably caused by the Wei family. These miscellaneous people who did whatever they could do for their skills!" Speaking of this, Luo Xuexian grinned indignation and even sweared.
After learning about the incident, Qin Shi nodded, not surprised.
Such a fight for fame and fortune is not uncommon among families, and he has long been used to it.
Thinking back to the beginning, in a small deserted town, the Qin family, Yang family, and Nie family were able to fight red and die, let alone a first-tier city like Hongyun City?
But he is now curious about what this "Purgatory Tower" is?
After his thoughts turned, Qin Shi tied the wrinkled corners of his clothes and asked: "Miss Luo, what is the use of controlling the Purgatory Tower? Why did you two families pay so much attention?"
When Luo Xuexian heard the Purgatory Tower, she was subconsciously alert, and her hand holding her pants clips showed a faint light. Then she realized that she had lost her composure. She quickly blushed and blamed herself: "Young Master Qin, you're laughing."
"Not worry."
Qin Shi shook his head. This kind of vigilance was human instinct, and he did not care about Luo Xuexian.
Luo Xuexian hesitated, and a hint of yearning appeared in her eyes, saying, "The Purgatory Tower is divided into ten layers, and has a particularly magical effect, which is that it can purify the spiritual power of heaven and earth and become extremely pure, practice in the tower, and even achieve the effect of three autumns a day."
"Oh? So magical?"
Qin Shi opened his mouth unexpectedly.
Three autumns a day, what does that mean? Even the secret realm of Burning Heaven with pure spiritual power can reach several times that of the outside world at most. It seems that the control of this Purgatory Tower is indeed very important.
As long as this Purgatory Tower is here, can we cultivate batches of strong men?
No wonder this Hongyun City is a first-tier city.
"The Wei family has been re-elected for two terms of the Purgatory Tower, for a full forty years, so I just heard it..." Luo Xuexian leaned her head lightly, said with a pause, and said proudly: "But, when my grandfather's generation and when the Luo family mastered the Purgatory Tower, the Luo family had three powerful men from the Xuanling Realm!"
"Hiss...Three Xuanling Realm?"
This lineup is indeed worthy of attention.
"Well, this time, the Luo family must obtain the right to use the Purgatory Tower. I will never let the conspiracy of these sinister villains succeed!" Luo Xuexian said stubbornly.
Qin Shi nodded, threw a confident look, and then asked again: "By the way, what is the origin of this purgatory tower?"
Luo Xuexian was stunned and shook her head: "I don't know, no one knows the origin of the Purgatory Tower. I just heard that it had already stood here when Hongyun City was established..."
"Hmm? No one knows?"
Qin Shi was surprised again and thought to himself: "Is it an ancient thing again?"
"Well, because each floor in the Purgatory Tower has strong pressure, one layer more than another. So far, the highest one has only reached the ninth floor of the Purgatory Tower, but no one has ever stepped onto the tenth floor."
Luo Xuexian nodded and said, "So some legends say that as long as you can step onto the tenth floor, you can know the origin of the Purgatory Tower."
"Is it the tenth floor?" Qin Shi became more and more curious about this purgatory tower, but due to his identity as an outsider, he was embarrassed to ask more questions. He could only lean on the ancient trees in the forest, allowing mottled light spots to penetrate through the branches and leaves of Xiran and scatter on his body.
Speaking of this, Luo Xuexian suddenly slapped her forehead, hurriedly grabbed Qin Shi's hand, and said a little embarrassedly: "Young Master Qin, look at me, you are my benefactor and Tingting. You have really neglected you. If you don't dislike me, go to the Luo family and let us all the friendship of the landlord."
Qin Shi would definitely not refuse this. After all, he is homeless now, and he is also very curious about this Purgatory Tower.
But before leaving, he had not done anything, so he raised his hand to signal Luo Xuexian and Luo Tingting to wait a little, and walked towards Ye Kuang, who died tragically.
Walking to Ye Kuang, Qin Shi tilted his head and his eyes fell on the animal-taught ring on his wrist: "Hehe, I said brother, since you are dead, I will keep this thing for you."
After collecting the animal taming ring, Qin Shi took down Ye Kuang's space ring.
After a brief look, this Blood Wolf Mercenary Group is worthy of being one of the three major mercenary groups in Hongyun City. It has more than 200 top-grade spirit stones, more than a dozen third-grade spirit grasses, and countless messy spirit grasses and medium-grade spirit stones.
"Haha, I've made a fortune now." Qin Shi shrugged. He had done too much such things. He smiled calmly, then turned around and looked at Luo Xuexian.
At this time, the two of them were staring at themselves in amazement, wiping their faces in confusion, and saying, "Uh, why do you all think of me like this? Is there something on my face?"
"No...it's okay!"
Luo Xuexian came to her senses and quickly lowered her head, but her eyes were glaring at Qin Shi.
Her heart was constantly thinking.
When he was fighting with Ye Kuang just now, Qin Shi looked clear when he was serious, and he was firm and determined, as if he was shining with stars.
But at this time, he can look like a gangster.
"What an interesting person." Luo Xuexian smiled on her pretty face and thought to herself.
Everything was done, and the three of them stood up and moved towards Hongyun City.
On the way, Luo Tingting stuck to Qin Shi, and the three of them formed two hours in the forest. It was already midnight. The stars at night blinked. Qin Shi and Luo Xuexian considered Luo Tingting's young problem, but did not rush to the road overnight, but instead found a tree to rest.
Sitting down, Qin Shi picked up some dry firewood, supported the fire among the three of them, and exploded with a blow of the silence fist to dispel the darkness of the night.
The three of them surrounded the fire and spent the peaceful night like this.
On a slight night, fireflies dragged the green light and shuttled through the bushes in the mountains and forests.
...
The next day, early morning.
The morning dew first condenses, and the rare cereal fragrance of the flowers reveals.
A rich morning light dissipated and fell on Luo Xuexian's beautiful eyes, causing her eyelids to twitch and she opened her eyes slightly.
"Awaken?" Qin Shi shouted. He got up very early and breathed in the essence of heaven and earth in the morning, which has become his habit of cultivation. No matter how tired the night is, he will definitely open his eyes when he turns white in the east the next day.
Luo Xuexian was stunned: "You got up so early."
"I'm used to it." Qin Shi smiled and did not explain.
In the past year, he has not mentioned this hard work to anyone, but it is this persistence and hard work that has enabled him to achieve what he has today.
In the path of cultivation, talent is important, but hard work is also an indispensable element.
Luo Tingting got up late, after all, she was a child and didn't open her hazy eyes until noon.
During the few hours before she opened her eyes, Qin Shi always maintained his state of exercise. Luo Xuexian widened her beautiful peach blossom eyes and looked at Qin Shi curiously without blinking.
She was moved by this perseverance: "What kind of person is this?"
When Luo Tingting woke up, the three of them continued to move towards Hongyun City.
It was about 30 kilometers from the mountains to Hongyun City. When the scorching sun approached the western mountain again and the sunset was scattered, the three of them rushed to Hongyun City.
“This is…so spectacular…”
Stepping out of the woods, Qin Shi was shocked by the scene in front of him.
The walls of Hongyun City were presented to him, standing firmly, ten meters high, and even dozens of streets in the ancient city in size, beyond the reach of the dust.
Inside the city walls, there are even more beautiful buildings filled with jade buildings and jade buildings, carved beams and painted buildings, each of which is an existence that Qin Shi has never seen before.
"Young Master Qin, come to the city." Luo Xuexian did not look down on Qin Shi's surprise. She just smiled reservedly and took her to Hongyun City.
When entering Hongyun City, the guards guarding the city saw Luo Xuexian and Luo Tingting, respectively, showing the look of the supreme realm. From then on, it can be seen that the Luo family's status in Hongyun City is really unfathomable.
But before we walked far, a handsome man came towards us.
When the handsome man saw Luo Xuexian, he immediately showed an excited look: "Xuexian..." But when he spit out half of his words, his eyes swept to Qin Shi, and suddenly changed 360 degrees, and became cold: "Who is he?"
ps: Happy birthday to children An Ruoxi! Everyone wishes you all!
